Lovely squigs. I suppose it's Warhammer so they probably aren't smiling any time soon.

sublemmys?

Communities, or comms

I see good content, I upvote good content. Simple as.

Lemmy has a version of grimdank you might be interested in., but I don't know which instance it's on.

!grimdank@lemmy.world let's find out if I did that right

Sir your wig wigs are bald.

Hey these are well done! Congratulations

[–] Lexam@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Those. Johnny those aren't lemmings. Oh God Johnny what did you bring home!?

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Adorable squigs! I loved squigs every since playing Warhammer Age of Reckoning and seeing the squig cake they got for the launch.

[–] LlamaByte@lemmings.world 4 points 2 hours ago

Couldn't look at these guys the same way after reading Gloomspite. Fuckers are terrifying. Great job though! For The bad Moon!

[–] PunkiBas@lemmy.world 6 points 6 hours ago

Man... I wish I was this good at painting. Great work!

There is !ageofsigmar@lemmy.ca but generally you wanna stick to the bigger places like !warhammer40k@lemmy.world due to the simple fact that the usercounts just aren't that big, and that gets worse the more you subdivide a given fandom.

I do try to cross-post to smaller communities, nothing stops you from posting to every suitable community. That way, the smaller places have a way to grow, even as they semi-hibernate in terms of activity most of the time.

Also, !grimdank@lemmy.world.

Yeah the crosspost feature is important if you want it to show up in multiple communities. That allows clients to filter out the duplicates if the user wants it that way.

You don't technically need to use the actual cross-post button. What matters is that the url being linked is the same.

That's how articles and youtube videos, even when posted separately by different people, get linked up as cross-posts.

Some clients, (like Thunder) allow you to jump between all the different cross-posts so you can see all their comments.

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

True but for image posts i dont know how that would work in a noob friendly intuitive way.

[–] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 5 points 8 hours ago

If you grab the image url, and re-use it instead of uploading the image again to get a new link, it works.

[–] aneirin@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Yeah this is already a little beyond me. I hope someone simplifies the whole system before too long because I'd love to drop reddit for good.

Just ignore what this nerd said (ily MentalEdge). Its like cross posting on reddit. You press the cross post button, select the community you want to crosspost to and hit send. Just read the rules but that is also nothing new.

[–] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 1 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

Using the button will always work, so just do that if nothing else.

[–] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 6 points 8 hours ago

Suggestion: Post to the small community, crosspost to the big. I always check the original post and that's taken me to some niche communities. I'm guessing I'm not the only one who does that.

[–] Angelusz@lemmy.world 5 points 7 hours ago

Now I want to pet them.

[–] Sunny@slrpnk.net 7 points 8 hours ago

Very very cool, thanks for sharing!

[–] SpiceDealer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 8 hours ago

Welcome! Glad to see more exoduses from the corpo socials.

[–] Kualdir 14 points 9 hours ago

These look terrifying I love it

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Ah, I see you're an Ork of culture!

[–] aneirin@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

I'll have you know I'm a proud grot thank you very much.

[–] curbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Just to add to the other comment, we just call them communities here (or comms sometimes for short).

The minis look great BTW!

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 6 points 9 hours ago

You call a group of toothy monsters a community? Actually that checks out.

[–] Semjaza@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 8 hours ago

Great squigs.

Love most of them, but one of them makes me feel uncomfortable. I think that's a good thing in rogue bouncy fungoids, or so I must tell myself.

[–] altkey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 8 hours ago

In Warhammer meatballs eat you!

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Nice! Did you print those yourself?

[–] aneirin@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago

Nah they're regular GW plastic.

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 8 points 9 hours ago

Squigs look great my dude 👍👌

The one in the back having a snack.

[–] Maestro@fedia.io 9 points 10 hours ago

These are really cool!

[–] ns1@feddit.uk 8 points 10 hours ago

Welcome, nice work!

[–] jagermo@feddit.org 7 points 10 hours ago

Squigs are fun to paint. Well done
